Trusted shower tray repair in Holton

Shower tray repair in Holton without replacing anything

If the whole tray looks tired, we can resurface it, giving it a fresh, even finish. Our repair technicians work on stone resin, cast iron and enamelled steel, and people most often call us about chips on the edges and a tray that creaks or moves underfoot.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
  • A tray broken in more than one place
  • Leaking waste fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What affects the price in Holton

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Holton: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it OK to use a cracked tray?

It’s best to stop using it until it’s checked, in case water is getting through.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

In most cases. If the tray moves, the support needs fixing first.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We check the tray for movement first.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
  5. It’s left to cure, usually until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Enamelled steel

Steel trays have an enamel surface like a steel bath. Exposed metal can rust, so early repairs help.

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so a firm base is essential. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Clean with washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Check the seal every few months

Wait the full curing time before you shower. After that, gentle cleaning and good ventilation keep it in good shape.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
